BusyBox Help, ip Command

Question

I'm using a Google phone running Android, and I need to figure out how to use the terminal's 'ip' command.

I found out that Android uses BusyBox in its terminal, but I can't find any help or tutorials or any information regarding it other than the basic information given in the terminal help. Can anyone point me to a site that would give me more information on how to use the commands, or tell me how to use the 'ip' command if you are familiar with it?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Here is the BusyBox usage information, for starters, and here is a full Linux man page. Note that the BusyBox implementation can be expected to be "bare bones", i.e. not as fully featured.

Answer 2

Busy box is just an implementation of the standard Unix command line utilities any man page on ip will work. You should be able to google man ip. Also busybox's website has a full manual for what it supports.
